The collection’s current distributor listings include blue, white and green dial watches, as well as white- and blue-sapphire dial versions. Those listings should not be confused with the two models described in the collection’s 2023 launch coverage: 68 Heures and Phase de Lune.
What is the Charlie Paris Alliance collection?
Charlie Paris describes Alliance as its “ultimate urban elegance” collection. On its steel-bracelet page, the brand says its men’s watches are designed and assembled in France and describes polished and brushed steel cases, matching steel bracelets, screwed bracelet links and a butterfly buckle. These are the manufacturer’s design and construction descriptions, not independent findings about durability or performance. Charlie Paris steel-bracelet collection
The same page describes Charlie Paris as a French watchmaking company founded in 2014. Its statements concern the company’s design and assembly; they do not establish that every component or manufacturing process is French.

The prices and variant names above are from PAUSE Montres’s Alliance collection listing. The page does not provide a complete technical specification for every variant, so it does not establish that the retailer-listed watches share the movements or complications reported for the original launch models.
What did the original Alliance launch include?
Edgard L’élégant’s launch feature, published March 15, 2023 and updated September 23, 2025, describes two models: 68 Heures and Phase de Lune. The figures below are the article’s launch-era product specifications, not independent test results; check the exact current model’s manufacturer specification before relying on them.

| Launch model | Movement and functions reported in launch coverage | Power reserve reported |
|---|---|---|
| 68 Heures | Swiss automatic G100 calibre; time, minutes, seconds and date | 68 hours |
| Phase de Lune | Franco-Swiss automatic C105 calibre; time, minutes, seconds, date and moon-phase indication | 40 hours |
The same feature reports a moon-phase indication precision of 122 years and 51 days for Phase de Lune. That is a specification stated in the launch coverage, not an independently verified result. Its preorder prices—€1,345 for 68 Heures and €1,895 for Phase de Lune—are historical and should not be treated as current prices. Edgard L’élégant’s Alliance launch feature
How to compare Alliance versions before buying
The collection name alone is not enough to establish which movement, complication or configuration a particular listing includes. Compare the exact reference and its current specification rather than carrying details from the original launch models over to the retailer’s blue, white, green or sapphire-dial variants.

- Bracelet or strap: Confirm whether the watch is supplied on the steel bracelet or a different configuration. For a replacement strap, verify compatibility with the precise model.

What the available descriptions can—and cannot—tell you
The brand page supports a clear account of Alliance’s stated urban styling and steel construction, while PAUSE Montres provides a snapshot of five listed variants and their displayed starting prices. The launch feature supplies historical descriptions of 68 Heures and Phase de Lune. Together, these sources do not provide a complete, current specification for every listed variant or independent evidence about accuracy, comfort, durability or real-world performance.
